Lentils with zucchini and miso dressing:
This is a quick high-fibre one-pan meal – easy to whip up when zucchinis are around Also easy to sub with eggplant). You don’t have to toast the seeds or nuts, but it really enhances their flavour. Ingredients
1½ tbsp (30 ml) sunflower seeds or pine nuts
2 tbsp + 1 tsp (45 ml) olive or rapeseed oil
1 large or 2 medium onions, quartered and sliced
About 400 g zucchini (courgettes), halved lengthways if large, cut into roughly 1 cm thick slices
2 x 400 g tins lentils, drained and rinsed, or 500 g drained precooked lentils rinsed
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
A pinch of dried chilli flakes (optional)
A squeeze of lemon juice
Sea salt and black pepper

Miso dressing
3 tsp brown or white (shiro) miso paste (or 1 tbsp soy sauce or tamari and ¾ tsp sugar)
3 tsp (15 ml) cider vinegar (ideally raw)
1½ tbsp (30 ml) cold-pressed rapeseed oil
1–2 cm piece fresh ginger, grated

Instructions
1. First make the miso dressing: whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl, adding 1– 1½ tbsp hot water to combine, until smooth (no need to add salt as the miso/soy is already salty). Set aside.
2. Heat a large, wide frying pan (ideally 30 cm diameter) over a medium heat. Add the sunflower seeds or pine nuts and toast for a few minutes, tossing or stirring regularly, until they just start to colour. Tip out of the pan onto a plate; set aside.
3. Add 1½ tbsp oil to the pan, then add the onion(s) with a pinch each of salt and pepper. 4. Fry, stirring regularly, for about 10 minutes or until softened and turning golden.
Push the onion to one side of the pan, then add another 3 tsp oil.
5. Throw in the zucchini (courgettes), season with a little salt and pepper and fry, stirring them regularly, for 7-10 minutes or until well coloured and softened. Mix the onion back into the courgettes towards the end of cooking.
6.Tip the lentils into the pan and add the garlic and chilli flakes, if using. Cook for about 5 minutes until the lentils are piping hot.
7.Take it off the heat, then pour in the miso dressing. Stir it in and leave to sit for a minute to just mellow in the heat of the pan.
Divide between warmed plates. Add a squeeze of lemon juice to each and sprinkle with the toasted seeds or pine nuts to serve.
Note

This is great with aubergines – as well as or instead of courgettes. You can also top each portion with a crisp-edged fried egg.

Discover what’s really driving your chronic tendon pain and how to effectively address it so you can return to the activities you love.

Ongoing tendon pain can limit your movement. Explore why rest alone isn’t effective and how our care at Tweed Coast Chiropractic can aid a stronger recovery.

Introducing Eleni Placas- Kinesiologist, Bodywork and Access Bars

Eleni’s journey into healing began decades ago. After initially training in Tui Na (Chinese Massage), she spent her twenties navigating the dual worlds of high-end management and therapeutic service aboard luxury yachts in the Mediterranean.
Her commitment to deep healing led her to extensive periods of study across Asia—Thai Massage in Chiang Mai (Thailand) and immersing herself in Iyengar yoga and Vipassana meditation in India. These skills were further refined while practicing in the wellness hubs of Byron Bay and later managing a naturopathic clinic in Melbourne.
In 2016, Eleni earned her Diploma of Neuroenergetic Kinesiology. For the past decade, she has integrated this into her private practice on acreage in Northern NSW, and has also been a therapist at the Crystal Creek Rainforest Retreat. Outside of work Eleni enjoys spending time with family, nature, local waterholes, and riding her horses. Eleni offers:

Insomnia may have been torturing humanity since ancient times, but over the last 20 years scientists have made progress in their understanding of chronic sleep deprivation.

We have probably all had the experience of lying awake in bed, our mind turning, unable to sleep.
